Instructions
- Method:
- Chop the main ribs out of the kale, leaving just the leaves.
- Peel the ginger (if using non-organic – if we are using organic ginger we like to leave the skin on). Peel the oranges and remove any pips. De-pit the dates ensuring there no stones left in. Scoop out the flesh of the avocado half and remove the stone.
